Understanding POMT2 Gene Muscular Dystrophy: Your Path to Answers
When you’re worried about congenital conditions affecting your child’s muscles, brain development, or vision, the uncertainty can be overwhelming. Our POMT2 Gene Test provides the clarity South African families need to make informed healthcare decisions and plan for the future with confidence.
What This Test Reveals About Your Health
The POMT2 gene test uses advanced Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technology to identify mutations that cause congenital muscular dystrophy-dystroglycanopathy type A2. This condition affects muscle development, brain structure, and eye formation from birth. By detecting these genetic changes early, families can access appropriate care and support services.
Who Should Consider This Genetic Test?
- Infants or children showing muscle weakness from birth
- Families with history of congenital brain abnormalities
- Children experiencing developmental delays with eye anomalies
- Parents planning pregnancy with family history of muscular dystrophy

If you’ve noticed these symptoms in Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban, or anywhere in South Africa, this test can provide the answers you need.
